Myristoleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid, has interest in nutritional science and metabolic studies due to its involvement in various biological processes. Researchers have been investigating its role in metabolism, particularly how it influences the function of enzymes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis and degradation. In the field of biochemistry, myristoleic acid is utilized as a probe to understand the activity of specific enzymes such as fatty acid synthase, which is critical for lipid metabolism. Its presence in certain fish oils and its influence on lipid profiles make it a focal point for studies on dietary fats and their metabolic pathways. Additionally, myristoleic acid is used in industrial applications, where it may serve as a biosynthetic precursor for the production of specialized esters and polymers, owing to its unique carbon chain structure.
